George, probably worth mentioning what state of a tank you're after. Something that you're happy to restore or something in better shape to use as is?? Ive had a look on eBay for you and anything that isn't a complete piece of shit is quite dear or has the usual ridiculous costs to get here from os, good luck and hope you get onto something  :)

One of the biggest problems with the 74 tank is it's material, a lot of them are rusty inside. The later tanks are a different shape & aluminium but come up for sale even less although I remember someone telling me they have a D model tank in their shed if I needed it

      Thanks Slakewell but like most I started off buying a 1/4 of a bike then a 1/2
      bike still not enought to build a bike so bought   a another 3/4 bike all on ebay.
       most members can relate to that.
       In the end i shall have a fair bit of TY for sale motors wheels forks  but no Tanks.

       The D tank is differant i think Tony thanks
